I'm selling an old, faulty iphone 3g. I am going to list as faulty and won't make any promises in the listing that it can be fixed. Is there anything I should be looking out for? I've not sold in a very long time.

Also, which postage service do I require on a phone now? I am also looking to post within europe so need to protect myself completely.

Thanks all

    Avforums.com has a classified section. You could sell it on there. They may ask you a few questions about the phone but I think you'd have less problems that selling on eBAY.

    If it will go under £41 then standard mail will insure it both in UK and overseas against loss in the post. If it is over £41 then only special dleivery will be sufficient in the UK, but you cannot insure it at all to go overseas unless you use a courier.
